NFL Free Pick: Take New Orleans. According to latest NFL trends, the Saints are 4-0 against the spread in their last four games in Week 11 and 21-5 ATS in their last 26 home games. They're also 4-1 against the number in their last five games versus NFC opponents, 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games in November, and 20-8 ATS in their last 28 games with a winning record. Colin Kaepernick struggled last week against an aggressive Carolina defense that kept him corralled. Look for Rob Ryan to put together a solid game plan to keep Kaepernick grounded for a second straight week against a NFC South opponent.
